Full description
Beginning with the 2005 model, the SLK inherited more aggressive styling borrowed from both the Mercedes McLaren SLK supercar and the more graceful stance of the larger SL. The interior of the 2007 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class is adorned with brightwork, and the curvy dashboard flows into the door panels, while the instrument panel sports large, chronograph-style gauges. Seating is well bolstered, and actual seating space is ampler than in most roadsters.
The power retractable hardtop in the 2007 Mercedes-Benz SLK really sets it apart from other roadsters; the clever arrangement can go up and down in just 22 seconds. The one drawback of the roof is that it occupies a designated area of the trunk when it's down, but there's still enough space for modest weekend bags. Wind buffeting with the top down is excellent, and to further boost comfort, there's an option called Airscarf that's tremendously useful on cold, sunny days. It channels warm air from vents located in the driver and passenger's headrests and allows top-down driving.
The 2007 Mercedes-Benz SLK has good acceleration with either of its V-6 engines, but the more powerful SLK350 has enough punch to be entertaining even on the steepest and tightest mountain roads, though you'll have to control the shifts yourself as the transmission felt indecisive in Drive. The SLK isn't as fun to drive, since its steering lacks the sharp turn-in feel and edgy response of other roadsters. Power is produced by a double overhead camshaft, 3 litre naturally aspirated 6 cylinder motor, with 4 valves per cylinder that develops power and torque figures of 228 bhp (231 PS/170 kW) at 6000 rpm and 300 Nm (221 lb·ft/30.6 kgm) at 2500-5000 rpm respectively. The engine delivers its power through to the wheels via a 6 speed manual gearbox. It weighs a quoted 1455 kg at the kerb. The Mercedes-Benz SLK 280 is said to be able to achieve a top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph), official fuel consumption figures are 13.6/6.7/9.3 l/100km urban/extra-urban/combined.
The car has 52.954 km on board.
